Hello everyone, I'm hoping you can help me with my situation. I recently did a overhaul on the suspension on my foxbody mustang including: new inner and outer tie roads, endlinks, steering rack off set bushings and most importantly a BORGESON steering shaft. I ran into is the critical issue with the steering shaft, I noticed when I put it back on and verified that i did it correctly by centering the steering rack and put marks of where each side locks etc.. I found myself in this very odd situation in which when the steering shaft is perfectly centered between the 2 lines I marked but the steering wheel is rather off to the right, my initial though is its going to need an alignment as I can see both tie rods are very off, however my main issue is I noticed when the steering wheel is centered it only turns 3/4 of the way to the left and about 1 and 1/4 rotation when turning to the left.
is this normal and will it be fixed after getting it professionally aligned because when I went underneath the car and had someone turning the steering wheel lock to lock they were both perfectly symmetrical in-regards to having the exact same amount of turns per side before maxing out .
The first image is how the steering shaft look perfectly centered, the second image in the steering wheel fully locked to the left-hand the third image is fully locked to the right, if anyone has a non airbag car could you confirm if this is the correct positioning. And if anyone knows what the exact issue I'm facing I would greatly appreciate some feedback thanks.
